While the speed of production and flexibility of mRNA are appealing, several industry challenges must still be addressed to realize the full potential and further expand its use.
The mRNA supply chain is undergoing massive growth in three particular areas. Here, speakers Khaled Yamout & Francoise Ribes walk us through the materials that have undergone the most scientific growth over the past few years and the impacts they’re noting these advancements having on the development of our mRNA drug substances and mRNA-LNP drug products.
We all know that plasmid quality is foundational in dictating the quality of the final mRNA drug substance. In this clip homing in on upstream process considerations, speakers Stu Sundseth (Tune Therapeutics), Marc Wolfgang (Sail Biomedicines), and Christian Dohmen (Ethris) outline some of the most important CQAs for plasmids and the impact they can have on the resulting quality of the mRNA drug substance for linear mRNA.
The oligo manufacturing paradigm is facing several different evolutions whether it be the transition to liquid-phase or hybrid synthesis. In this Advancing RNA Live clip, Camp4’s Satya Kuchimanchi explores how these manufacturing advancements are impacting our supply chain needs.
